We reported three consecutive cases of severe fungal keratitis initially undiagnosed by corneal scrapping. Corneal biopsy showed fungal elements of Paecilomyces lilacinus, Fusarium solani, Scedosporium apiospermum. Most cases of fungal keratitis could be treated successfully if adequate antifungal therapy were started early. Early and accurate diagnosis is of major importance. The results of our cases confirm the superiority of corneal biopsy over corneal scrapping. Corneal biopsy is a procedure of choice in suspected cases of keratomycosis in which corneal scrapings fail.
